No I think he is talking about exhausts that angle out a lot. You would have to center them in the cut out since it is kind of deep on the 5axis rear. It is one the passenger side.

well its entirely possible that Im just being blind...but from the pics I've seen it looks like it is coming out of the center of the rear valance. Maybe that's a custom rear valance or option for that kit and you can get it to exit right or left too.

np. yea i like the center exit one...im liking the dual tips. I may try and get one of them. Hmmmm. I was gonna get a custom Magnaflow axleback made or get a Precision Muffler axle back. But a custom one with a muffler with dual tips out the middle.....Is looking pretty hot to me!!!

huh thats pretty awesome. But we cant buy a pulley for like 50 bucks for our car and make 25hp. I have a friend of mine that has a mini S S/C thats got a pulley, exhaust, etc. and is putting down 193whp. That thing is AWESOME. I have another friend with a mini S turbo and that is the only car i have nearly $hit myself in. lol pulls like 1+ Gs

^^ well Im not dissing the Mini Cooper S... it's a cool little ride... I prefer the original British ones...but none the less they are cool cars... Main reason I got my next tC over a Mini S... is simply with all the big@ss suv's on the road... and I'd hate to get in an accident with one... for a full sized suv... it would be like running over a soda can. Not good odds for surviving a wreck in one.
